Ibanez RG5121 Prestige Electric Guitar, Dark Tide Blue Flat

Player's Perspective

Ibanez Prestige RG5121 in a gorgeous, irridescent Dark Tide Blue Flat finish with a natural mahogany back.

Ibanez's flagship Japan-made Prestige series RGs offer some of the best bang-for-your-buck value in the hard rock/metal guitar world. This RG is perfect for anyone who wants superior craftsmanship and incredible playability on a rock n' roll axe. This one is equipped with two revolutionary Fishman Fluence Modern active humbuckers that allow this guitar to have 2 distinct and very musical voices.

The Super Wizard neck has that iconic super fast, comfortable feel that Ibanez has perfected over the years, a profile that some of the guys here at the shop who don't usually like thin profile necks actually do seem to like - there's just something special about the width that makes it comfortable for all players. The fretwork is immaculate to help you achieve super low action for lightning shredding. If you need a guitar that won't slow you down, especially in the mid to upper registers, you'll love how the fingerboard responds. This can easily become your next lifelong shredder axe.

Item Specifics

The Super Wizard 5pc Maple/Wenge neck provides extra-smooth playing, while Macassar Ebony produces a tight low and mid range with an iconic attack on the high end. It also features a quick response and rich sustain. The Gibraltar Standard II is a simple fixed bridge that was designed to unify with the guitar's body and provide optimal transfer of each string's vibration. Smooth surface is designed to maximize playing comfort. The luminescent side dot position marks make it easy for players to see fretboard position marks when performing on dark stages. The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups provide an aggressive tone and a powerful attack without excess noise. The Gotoh® MG-T locking machine heads achieve incredible tuning stability, cutting down string-changing time.
